TORONTO, June 16 /CNW/ - BMO Bank of Montreal today opened the doors of

extended hours and is open seven days a week.
"Everyone at the branch is proud to open this full-service location. Our
employees represent the vibrant community of the Church and Wellesley area as
we at BMO draw our strength from the diversity of our people and our
businesses," said Moira Klein-Swormink, Branch Manager, BMO Bank of Montreal.
"BMO is readily present in the LGBT community in Toronto," said Alex
Dousmanis-Curtis, Senior Vice President, Greater Toronto Area Division, BMO
Bank of Montreal. "BMO Pride, our LGBT employee affinity group, is an example
of our commitment. It is made up of employees from across BMO Financial Group
actively involved in increasing awareness and advocacy for diversity, equity
and inclusion," she added. BMO Pride will take part in the Toronto Pride
parade.
In addition, BMO is again the proud platinum sponsor of the Pride and
Remembrance Run. A team of BMO runners will participate in the Run on
June 28, 2008. They are currently raising much needed funds for the
beneficiaries through fundraising and personal pledges.
